[Intro]
B G#m C#m F# 2x
[Verse]
B
You used to get it in your fishnets
G#m
Now you only get it in your night dress
C#m
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
F#
Landed in a very common crisis
B
Everything's in order in a black hole
G#m
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
C#m
The Bloody Mary's lacking her Tabasco
F#
Remember when you used to be a rascal?
[Chorus]
C#m
Oh the boy's a slag
F#
The best you ever had
C#m
The best you ever had
F# C#m
Is just a memory and those dreams
F#
But as daft as they seem
C#m~
As daft as they seem
E~
My love when you dream them up
[Verse]
B
Flicking through a little book of sex tips
G#m
Remember when the boys were all electric?
C#m
Now when she's told she's gonna get it
F#
I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it
B
Clinging to not getting sentimental
G#m
Said she wasn't going but she went still
C#m \
Likes her gentlemen not to be gentle
(
F#)
Was it a Mecca dauber or a betting pencil?
[Chorus]
C#m
Oh the boy's a slag
F#
The best you ever had
C#m
The best you ever had
F# C#m \
Is just a memory and those dreams
F# \
But as daft as they seem
C#m
As daft as they seem
E
My love when you dream them up
[Bridge]
D#m G#m
Oh, where did you go?
C#m
Where did you go?
D#m C#m
Where did you go? Woah.

[Verse]
B G#m
Falling about
C#m F# B
You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
G#m
You were just sounding it out
C#m F# A#m
You're not coming back again.
